Abstract

A natural way of constructing lattices is from error-correcting codes, using the so-called Construction A. It associates a lattice in ℝn to a linear code in ℤqn (the set ℤq of integers modulo q will be introduced next). Such lattices are also called q-ary lattices (or modulo-q lattices) and have several applications in information theory and cryptography.
